Hey Fazier community! 👋 I built Pantry Roulette because my wife and I kept hitting the same wall every night — open the fridge, see a handful of random ingredients, and have absolutely no idea what to make. Every recipe app we tried assumed a perfectly stocked pantry. So I built something that works the other way around. Tell it what you actually have, pick a mood, and it finds the best recipe it can from your real world constraints. It's completely free, no sign up required, and works on any device. I built it with vanilla JavaScript — no frameworks — as a learning project that turned into something I actually use every day. Would love any feedback from the community, especially around the vibe matching and recipe suggestions. Always looking to improve it. 👉 pantryroulette.com
